Thanks for answering. I have programmed on and of - simple things with
different versions of Basic. I started programming with RPG back in 1986 :-)
. Have been learning C and C++ for now about a year as a hobby.

(hopefully...)

Could you tell me what you need libffi for?


Anyway I also use more time to practice programming in Gambas.  I am sure
there are other's who do the same and produce those valuable little pieces
of code. Those people should be asked to send them to somewhere to be
collected. And a rule should be that nobody uses word "stupid" when having a
look at them :-)
I have a domain kllog.net, which I bought for other purpose but it is now
unused - I could start collecting these examples there (or maybe the
allbasic.info want's to do that) - then people could suggest which are good
enough to be part of the Gambas distribution.

Best Regards
Kari
